Cadillac Fairview (Tufties)
I had the pleasure of working at the Hornet NYC Animation Studio during Nov 2016 as one of the compositors for this short. Fun project to work on and tons of great people there! Project description below: Building upon Fairview's successful holiday campaign which introduced us to the Tufties last year, Emmanuelle & Julien and Montreal's Bleublancrouge create this season's film. This year we are transported to the Tufties homeland as it is threatened by a pair of gruff woodsmen and their novice companion. Through a simple story that focuses on the magic of giving, E&J's adept craftsmanship shines with original and stylized design and allows space for subtle nuanced animation. The theme of the film is familiar, but the rich environments and fine-tuned characters offer a novel twist.
